    time outs!?

    I'm just curious why FL kicks me out if I have been non-active for a few moments. I'm serious, I went downstairs to make a cup of tea, and returned back, was only gone for about 3 or 4 minutes and I'm already booted out. Why is the time out here so fast? It happens to me all the time.
